Jaden Craig throws 3 TD passes as sluggish TCU pulls away from Arkansas State 31-7

FORT WORTH, Texas -- , Jaden Craig threw for 337 yards and three touchdowns, and TCU overcame a sluggish showing for a 31-7 victory over Arkansas State on Saturday night. Craig's 8-yard scoring pass to Ka'Morreun Pimpton late in the third quarter capped a 99-yard drive that came after the Horned Frogs (2-1) made a fourth-down stop when the Red Wolves (1-2) went for a tying touchdown. Ed Small had a career-high 164 yards receiving with a 17-yard TD. Small's 22-yard catch kick-started the march that tied a 99-yarder against Kansas five years ago as the longest in school history. Craig, a Harvard transfer, also connected with Kari Ashley for 32 yards on that drive. Trey Owens fooled the TCU defense with a 34-yard keeper on third-and-1 to get inside the 10-yard line.
